Semidefinite programming based approximation algorithms, such as the Goemans and Williamson approximation algorithm for the MAX CUT problem, are usually shown to have certain perf...
Base station location has significant impact on network lifetime performance for a sensor network. For a multihop sensor network, this problem is particular challenging as we need ...
In joint work with ´Eva Tardos in 1995, we asked whether it was possible to obtain a polynomial-time, polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the disjoint paths problem in th...
Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) is an effective method to discover the underlying semantic structure of data. It has numerous applications in information retrieval and data mining....
The survivable network design problem (SNDP) is to construct a minimum-cost subgraph satisfying certain given edge-connectivity requirements. The first polynomial-time approximati...
